If you had a choice to live anywhere in the world quite comfortably where would that be ? Or is it simply out the question as the UK is the only place for you ? Canada
If you had the power to eliminate one UK football team and send them into oblivion forever - who would that be and why ? Chelsea
What profession do you wish you had pursued given your time all over again ? Something manual, probably carpentry
What song by an artist do you consider the most inspirational and something you would play to give you a lift or Boost ? Much as I love music I'm not sure I've ever been inspired to do anything because of listening to one track. That said, the lyrics of Nigel Blackwell (Half Man Half Biscuit) usually put a smile on my face and have led me to investigate many of the references in songs, just so I know what he's on about.
As a final request - what would your last meal/snack etc on planet earth be ? Dinner |  |

Bacon sandwich is a superb call and whistled through my brain as I posed the question
But
It must have brown sauce !
And it’s always nice to have a reformed convict on board (kidding!) [Post edited 21 Aug 2018 21:10]

I do live in Virginia (just west of Washington DC, hence my username). But don't really like it here. Mum is 74 so I try to look out for her.
Did live most years from 2003-2011 in Winterset Iowa (literally like the film Bridges of Madison County).
But I think of San Francisco as home (1990-2001) .. Way too expensive to live there now, but I'm not that poor. May head back there this winter or spring 2019.
Otherwise? London if I could afford it. Berlin, where I was a kiddo. Denver Colorado is nice. Went to high school there. My girlfriend was the total package that every boy envied. She liked me for my brain. Go figure :D | | | |

Sorry, didn't answer the other 4:
Dons out. Simple
I would have preferred to be a fire fighter or police officer or in the military (registered fro the draft at 17)
Queen, We are the champions
Fish and chips, brother ;):D | | | |

If you had a choice to live anywhere in the world quite comfortably where would that be ? Or is it simply out the question as the UK is the only place for you ?
Galapagos Islands. Equatorial, but temperate climate; nothing there wants to eat you (as few things there have natural predators if you avoid the one island with the runner snakes!). Indescribable natural beauty, yet chic, technology advanced and sophisticated in the towns. Like (IMHO) an idyllic Greek island but without yoghurt, ouzo, migrants, debt, inflation, beggars and Mama Mia.
If you had the power to eliminate one UK football team and send them into oblivion forever - who would that be and why ?
Ipswich Town. Why, pretty obvious really.
What profession do you wish you had pursued given your time all over again ?
Astronaut or pilot. But never mind the G-Force, I would need a space capsule with an extra wide G width fitting, so it was never going to happen.
What song by an artist do you consider the most inspirational and something you would play to give you a lift or Boost ?
"It's my life and I do what I want" (Animals). I played this continuously for six months after my divorce to inspire me to change my life positively.
As a final request - what would your last meal/snack etc on planet earth be ?
A whole blue whale in a deep freeze with enough seafood sauce to make it palatable that I could eat very slowly before I was shot. Its 200 tonnes might keep me alive for at least the rest of my natural days. |  | | |

1. I have not been to many other countries in my life - just four so it's hard to answer. France has given me the chance to buy a house whereas I couldn't in England when my life changed - like Noah's did - and although I didn't like it here at first I am grateful for the opportunity and am getting to feel settled now. It is nice here and far calmer with clean air less noise and a population less inclined to be acquisitive. It's still early but there's less that I miss about England now. So, hesitantly I will say 'rural France'.
2. I think I'd have liked to have been an art historian.
3. Dump Plymouth Argyle in the Channel. Horrible fans - anyone remember the 95 play off down there? Bristol rovers are not much better.
4. Days of Pearly Spencer - David McWilliams followed by the last 15 mins of any live Jethro Tull gig.
5. Doubt I could face anything but I'd wash it down with a pint of real ale from a preferred micro.

I live in WV, USA a beautiful part of country, but would prefer South Carolina where it doesn't snow and the temperatures and humidity are more acceptable. May retire to Hilton Head, SC. Loved Israel, amazing place.
Would have to be Chelsea, a horrible club. I am a Spurs fan and they are just horrible. arsenal obviously not far behind.
I am very fortunate to be doing what I love, frustrating at times but blessed to coach football (soccer) at the college level.
I Can Only Imagine by Mercy Me. https://www.google.com/search?q=i+can+only+imagine+song&oq=I+can+only+imagine+&a
Would have to be cod and chips, boy I miss them. |  | | |

If you had the power to eliminate one UK football team and send them into oblivion forever - who would that be and why ? MK Dons should never have existed in the first place, so happy to play my part in righting that wrong.
What profession do you wish you had pursued given your time all over again ? RAF pilot.
What song by an artist do you consider the most inspirational and something you would play to give you a lift or Boost ? Underworld - Born Slippy.
As a final request - what would your last meal/snack etc on planet earth be ? A UBAC chicken masala from the Shimla in Bradford, but as it was in 1981. |  |

When I was in Hyderabad I didn't have a clue if it was night or day let alone telling the difference between four minutes past eight and six minutes past. If you ordered at 20:00 service was great! [Post edited 23 Aug 2018 16:50]
